Flow-X General functions - fxBatchFWA
fxBatchFWA
Description
The function calculates a flow-weighted average (FWA) for a batch.
A batch can be any batch type of process, such as product loading, meter proving or transmitter
validation.
The function weights the input value with a flow increment and updates the average accordingly. The
flow increment is provided by either a ‘fxTotalizerDelta’ or a ‘xTotalizerRate’ function.
